WARNING:
If any part is missing,
do not operate the tool until the missing
part has been replaced.
Doing so could result in serious personal injury.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Double
insulated tools are equipped
with a
polarized
plug (one blade is wider than the other).
This plug will fit into a polarized
outlet only one way. If
the plug does not fit into the outlet, reverse the plug.
If it still does not fit, contact
a qualified
electrician
to
install a proper outlet.
Avoid contact
with grounded
surfaces,
such as
pipes, radiators,
ranges,
and refrigerators.
There
is an increased
risk of electric shock if your body is
grounded.
Do not expose
power tools to rain or wet conditions.
A wet power tool
will increase the risk of electric
shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tool or to pull
the plug out of an outlet. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges,
or moving parts. Replace damaged
cords
immediately.
Damaged cords
increase the risk of electric shock.
=
When operating
a power tool outdoors,
use an outdoor
extension
cord
that is marked
W-A or W. These cords are rated for outdoor
use and reduce
the risk of electric shock.
Replace damaged
cords
immediately.
Using a damaged
cord can cause
shock,
burns, or electrocution.
If an extension
cord is required,
use a cord with the proper size of conductor
to prevent excessive
voltage drop, loss of power, or overheating.
The
following
table shows the correct size to use, depending
on cord length
and the nameplate
amperage
rating of the tool. When in doubt,
use the next
heavier gauge. Always use UL and CSA listed extension
cords.
